From day one I knew that this explore trip would be good. There was just seven of us in the group and we seemed to click immediately Do Huy Hung was our group leader, he was fun informative and his knowledge of the history of Vietnam the flora and fauna wherever we went was truly amazing. The highlights for me was the Pu long nature reserve and the surrounding villages, and the Mekong delta However this trip offers a great deal despite the flooding and rain we seemed to pack so much in. I would highly recommend this trip is offers so much and the walking is not difficult. I would also like to say that having been on explore trips before that Do Huy Hung is an asset to Explore .
